Usher: Bieber not a racist
Usher releases a public statement about Bieber via his Instagram account..
At my core, I am a person that supports growth and understands without judgement, that growth often comes as a result of pain and continues effort. As I have watched Justin Bieber navigate difficult waters as a young man, I can tell you that he hasn’t always chosen the path of his greatest potential, but he is unequivocally not a racist. What he was 5 years ago was a naive child who did not understand the negative power and degradation that comes from playing with racial slurs. What he is now is a young man faced with an opportunity to become his best self, an example to the millions of kids that follow him to not make the same mistakes.
Pleads ‘no contest’ to misdemeanor vandalism

He has been ordered to not come within one hundred yards of Schwartz and his family. A source close to Bieber says:
Justin is glad to get this matter resolved and behind him. He will continue to move forward focusing on his career and his music.
Bloom swings at Bieber
After Bieber makes a remark about Bloom’s ex, Miranda Kerr, Bloom attempts to punch Bieber at an Ibiza nightclub, to cheers from those watching. However, a source close to Bieber insisted that the comment was only made after Bloom took a swing, and missed. A source:
Justin was at one table, and Orlando was at another. But when Bieber and his party were later walking past Bloom’s table, Orlando refused to shake Bieber’s hand. Then Bieber said something rude to Orlando, like, ‘She was good.'”
